In high power high voltage application BLDC motor are widely used because of higher efficiency, simple in construction, lower cost, less in maintenance and higher torque or high output power per unit volume. For driving the BLDC motor an electrical commutator (inverter) is required. PWM inverter gives good performance. In two level inverter there are problems of harmonics distortions, low elect...

This paper deals with the implementation of cascade multilevel inverter-based STATCOM, which employs H-bridge inverter. The STATCOM system is modeled using the d-q transform, which calculates the instantaneous reactive power. In this paper, a power line conditioner using a cascade multilevel inverter is presented for voltage regulation, harmonic filtering and reactive power compensation (var). ...

In this paper, analysis of cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter in DTC-SVM (Direct Torque Control-Space Vector Modulation) based induction motor drive for FCEV (Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle) is presented. Cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter uses multiple series units of H-bridge power cells to achieve medium-voltage operation and low harmonic distortion. In FCEV, a fuel cell stack is used as t...

Multilevel inverters have been widely used for highpower, high-voltage applications. Among the existing multilevel inverter topologies Cascaded inverter topology has many advantages over Neutral point clamped and Flying capacitor inverters, but it requires isolated DC sources which is a main drawback of this topology. A new topology with a reversingvoltage component requires fewer numbers of co...

This paper presents a novel scalar based pulse width modulation (PWM) algorithm for four-level asymmetrical dual inverter fed induction motor drive. In the conventional carrier based PWM algorithms for dual inverter fed induction motor drive, both inverters will be operated at all modulation indices. But, the proposed PWM algorithm operates only one inverter at lower modulation indices and othe...
